The Martian - Andy Weir (slightly more entertaining than the movie)
The ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary Results - Gary Keller (great for improving ones focus on the task at hand while having the big picture in mind)
Not Fade Away - Laurence Shames (note to self: it's never too late to appreciate all we have and have had. recommended)
Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration - Ed Catmull (excellent stories and a unique POV on Jobs)

The War of Art - Steven Pressfield (a great way to cure procrastination)
Peopleware - Tom DeMarco (not for me)
